If it isn't you のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

“ I am not taking you with me. Go bug someone else.” Zander sneers at me. I can only see his back but I know him very well and his expressions. “ Please, Zan. We are already getting late and you know very well that I can’t drive.” I beg him. He turned around and like always my heart skipped a beat. Looking at him is always a new experience. His dirty blonde hair is smeared on his forehead, his one leg is already on a bike. He rolled his steel-gray eyes at me and huffed. “ Hurry up then. I am not going to wait for you.” “ You are the best Zan.” I grin at him and take a leap toward him. He smirked at me and before I could even understand what he was going to do, he revived the engine and left me standing in front of his house. I looked at his passing image and the ghost of his bike and sighed. It's always like this with him. The more I try to breach his walls, the harder he pushes me. I look at the time and I know I am getting late on the first day of school. I could ask f

“ Thanks, Dad, love you.” I kissed Dad Mave on his cheek and left his car. “ Tomorrow you will drive your to school.” he shouted at me but I was already moving. As I enter the school gates I stopped in my tracks. Zander is there on his bike like every day, but behind him, Daisy is sitting with him. My stomach clenched. What’s happening between them? Daisy left without saying anything to him and I follows him to the halls. “ Can we talk?” I ask Zander. “ If I say no, Would you stop.” He eyes me warily. I grind my teeth. “ Still asking something is a more polite way.” He snorts. “ What’s going on between you and Daisy?” I raises my suspicion and it was a mere whisper. He turns to look at me and grabs my wrist to pull me closer. “ What’s going on between me and Daisy is none of your fucking business.” he sneers at my face. “ We can talk calmly. You don’t have to shout at me.” I whisper softly. Even though my face is calm my stomach is clenching, his face is way t

The next morning, I called Grandpa to drive me to school, but I had ulterior motives for the meeting. “ My favorite grandkid. Hurry or I will leave your late ass here.” He shouted from outside. I hurried with a box and put it in the back seat. “ I am your only grandkid. Gramps. I don’t have competition, unlike someone.” I teased him. “ Touche.” “ Ask your assistant to donate the box at the back.” “ Will do.” The only reason I asked Grandpa is that he would not ask me the reason behind it. “ Julian wants to talk to you. He has something important to discuss with you.” I groaned. “ Don’t tell me you threw me under the bus again?” This is what my grandparents do. They pull up some crazy shit and blame it on me. Last time they took me to an illegal poker night which got busted by the police. Uncle Julian reams a new asshole out of us. He smirked at me. “ I wish kid. I wish. Guess you have to talk to him on this matter.” When the school building came into my view. My

Chill ran down my spine thinking about all the possibilities that could ruin my life, the air in the room grew thick. I never in my wildest dream thought that I would be so scared in front of Uncle Julian. Uncle Julian looked at me with narrowed eyes and the weight of his stairs made me uncomfortable and uncomfortable was a very lighter term that I was using. I was horrified and closed my eyes. “I thought you trusted me.” He accused me. “I ..Uncle..” I tried to say something, anything that would make him less mad. “No, you can’t uncle me, now.” He stood up and I did that too. I was so scared that I stuttered. “I…I didn’t know.. I was scared.” I stuttered. “You were scared?” a hollow laugh escaped his mouth. “You know how embarrassing it was to find out that my niece is in love with Knight’s nephew,” he said. “I am really… what?” I looked at him, startled. I could not believe what I heard. “What did you just say?” I asked him. “Don’t act so innocently in front of

Zander came toward me with measured steps and I eyed his advance, unsure of what I should do with this. “You came with Adrian?” he asked me with a puzzled expression. I snorted at him and decided to treat him like the way he treated me. I moved by his side and replied, “You have eyes, I am sure you saw that.” He followed me, “What why? And you and ..” he trailed off. “I don’t owe you anything. And certainly not an explanation.” After what you did to me, was silent in that statement. “But you never liked him,” he hissed. “And you know me that well.” I chuckled. “Yes, I do.” He took hold of my arm and dragged me to the empty classroom. “What is your fucking problem?” I snapped at him. “Yeah, exactly. What is your problem? Adrian, that person is one mean being. You are with him now. Did you forget he is the one who constantly teased you for everything?” He growled at me and cornered me to the wall. “Stop.” I tried to push him, but all in vain. “Tell me what is goi
